LILLY'S POV

As I watch Landon and Ivan take off, I'm worried. Are they going to let their ego get in the way of what

needs to be done? I'm flattered that Landon wants to protect me at all cost. But there was no way that

they saw me. I was discreet about it, I tried to be, anyway. I tried to make it look like I was just a

concerned pack member checking on them.

I help Jasmine to her feet, knowing that she is confused to how she is still alive. I can see fear in her

eyes. Then all of sudden I hear a whistle confused and I say out aloud “what is that noise?”

She looks at me as tears fill her eyes, she says with a shaky voice, “We are getting ready to be

attacked.”

“Fuck ok, I need to get you to safety.” A strength overcomes me that I never knew I had, I pick up

Jasmine and take her to Landon's house. As little Jayden comes running over as we get into the door.

“Lilly, what is going on the whistle went off where is my daddy.”

“Your daddy will be fine. I need the two of you to hide and don't come out until I tell you to do not come

out for anyone else. Do you understand me?”

“Say you understand me.”

“Yes, we understand.”

“Good, now go hide.”

As I turned around to go walk out the door, I'm scared of what I am about to see. I have never seen an

actual attack. I think that's why my father always made sure we had training just in case it would ever

happen. I'm petrified that I'm not going to be able to save everybody. I don't want to be the person that

chooses who lives and who dies.

As the door opens, I see those fighting for their lives. Not really sure where to even start. As I assist in

helping other wolves by attacking the person that is attacking them. They are wounded, but they will

survive until I can help them. I am trying to help as many as I can, but I can't reach them all. I especially

try to help those that are more defenseless that have no idea how to protect them or their children.

The other wolves begin to catch on as they see me saving those that are defenseless, I can tell that it

angers them. Because now they are all coming after me at once. My father always told me that the

most important rule was to never let anybody corner you.

I am trying to figure a way out of being cornered, but there's so many. I become nervous, I wonder what

my father would do in this situation. He would fight like hell in a circle, not in a corner. As I step forward

the first one lunges at me as I kick him in the face, and he drops to the ground. Another gets me from

behind and puts his arm around my neck. I kick him in the groin as hard as I can, and he falls to the

ground and releases my neck.

What happens next I don't have any control over there is nothing I am able to do as they all charge me

at once? I become nervous, knowing I can't take all of them at once and win. As they come towards

me, all five of them lunge at me to attack me, as I fall to the ground. As I can feel their teeth breaking

my skin, I try not to even let a whimper out to show that I am in any kind of pain.

As I start to become faint, that's when I see Landon come out of nowhere. As I lay on the ground, I

can't do anything but watch. As I shift back to my human, too weak to stay shifted. I then put my hands

around my throat, trying to keep the blood from leaving my body, needing to heal faster, so I can help

Landon.

A smell overcomes my nostrils and I know that Ivan is close, I don't want to ask for his help, but I need

it. So, I mind link him “Help Landon please.”

I don't see him, but I know he is close, his sweet smell is making me crazy. I just hope that he isn't too

late. I did everything I possibly could do to help the people that needed it. Knowing that some pack

members were already gone before I could help them. But I helped all those that I possibly could until

they came for me. I am so glad that Landon showed up when he did.

I then see Ivan jumping from the woods. As he rips the throats out of the wolf's that are attacking

Landon, I sigh in relief. I'm happy that he made it just in time. I can see that he is concerned about me

as he approaches me, I look at him and smile “I am okay, but give these monsters what they fucking

deserve.”

I can't help but to be filled with so much rage these people had no threat to nobody so why were they

attacked. A lot of the Warriors sacrificed themselves trying to keep the pack safe, most of them losing

their lives before I could do anything to save them. This pack was mostly filled with innocence, so why

would anybody target them.

Right before they go to kill the last rouge, I stopped them. As I struggle to stand, I get to my feet. “Wait,

don't kill him, we need to know the reasoning behind this attack.”

Landon looks at me furiously as he rips the throat out of him. “They all deserve to be dead,, and I

already know who the fuck is behind this.”

I look at him with a worry in my eyes. “Landon, are you okay?”

“No, I'm not, my pack was attacked, there are pack members that are dead. Oh my god, Jayden.”

“I asked Jayden to hide and not to come out until I came back for him.”

As I watch Landon run to his house, I follow behind, not being able to move as fast as I would like to.

Then Ivan comes over, and he picks me and carries me bridal style. I smile at him, He then looks at me

and says, “would you like a lift."?

I smile, “I would get there faster thank you.”

As we get into Landon's house, he then slowly puts me to my feet. “Thank you for the lift.”

“Anytime,”

“I then yell out, Jayden, it's Lilly you can come out now, it's safe. Your daddy is here, and he wants to

see you.”

Relief overcomes my body when I see Landon and Jayden walking down the hall. I'm so grateful that at

least we are ok. Hoping that we can figure all this out together.
